You should first take your son to a paediatrician whose diagnosis might be more accurate and efficient because your son also suffers from asthma. Besides, the pediatrician can refer a pulmonologist in you have to. The patient shouldn't take drugs on his own, but should only use medications prescribed by a doctor.

I took 50 pills ( vitamin C and zinc tablets) at once nothing happened I'm I in danger
Female | 25
Taking 50 pills of vitamin C and zinc all at once can be dangerous! It may induce tummy pain, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. Too much zinc in your body can also be bad for you. Don't waste any time. Seek medical assistance without hesitation. Water drinking may be useful in getting rid of leftover vitamins and minerals. Your body needs time for healing.

The doctor prescribed me a medicine (megapin) of 500mg but the megapin I got has a label 250/250 mg does that mean the medicine is total 500mg?
Male | 60
When medicine labels show 250/250 mg, it means there are two ingredients, each with 250 mg. One tablet contains 500 mg (250 + 250 = 500 mg). You're getting the correct dose your doctor prescribed. Follow the instructions for how many tablets to take.

Hello sir,i want to know before 3 months a dog bite me and i take 3 injections and doesn't take 2 more injections,and after 3 months a new dog bite me what I do please suggest me
Male | 26
Dogs have the potential of infecting you if they bite. Bitten twice by dogs is a matter of concern. When you miss some injections, this could indicate that you are not fully protected. Infections may cause symptoms such as redness, swelling, warmth, and pain in the bite area. You must visit your doctor to get a proper evaluation and treatment, which may include additional vaccinations to avert complications.

have what i believe to be a hemorrhoid on the outside of my anus. It causes a lil bit of discomfort but not much. each day i can feel it less and less. its been about 2 days seen i notice it. i soaked in some warm bath water with espon salt. also applied some preparation h hemorrhoidal cream to it. as of today it doesnt cause and discomfort however today while i was running errors i noticed it start bleeding and the blood isnt coming from out my butt its coming from the bump i believe to be a hemorrhoid so im trying to figure out if thats normal or should i go to emergency room?
Male | 22
The hot bath and Preparation H cream you are using may provide some relief but you should be aware that bleeding is not a usual cause of hemorrhoids. I advise you to see a specialist, a gastroenterologist, who knows how to diagnose and treat your condition properly. If you have any rectal blood loss symptoms, you should consult a doctor as soon as possible.
